Cover the bowl and let the dough sit at room temperature for 30 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 5 days.
- 8
Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats.

Scoop the cookie dough into round balls, about 2 tablespoons per ball. Place on the prepared baking sheet, about 2 inches apart.
